{} would create simpler lead to conflicts for the parser, but semantics will be discussed when this feature will be discussed the next time. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-13 19:57:57] zyss at mail dot zp dot ua Description: ------------ One of the most frequently used keywords in PHP is "array". It would be great to adopt just another construct from C/C++, namely array constructor using curly brackets { }. These are cases when PHP code is oversaturated with "array" word. In this way it would be much easier to write and read PHP code. I am aware of case #3928 and http://wiki.php.net/rfc/shortsyntaxforarrays, but I think that curly brackets would be more suitable than square brackets. Noone seems to complain of how C/C++ arrays are constructed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=48266&edit=1
